Kathy Griffin shared a glimpse into her health with an update while recovering from a medical procedure.
Kathy Griffin is on the mend.
The comedian gave a "TMI" update on her life, sharing that she was hospitalized after undergoing a medical procedure.
"I spent the night in the hospital because I had complications from my colonoscopy," Kathy shared in her May 21 Instagram post. "I know, I know, very sexy but I am home now with the doggies where I belong."
Alongside the screenshot from her Notes app, the 65-year-old also shared a selfie in good spirits. She captioned the post, "A not so tech savvy update."
The Suddenly Susan alum hasn't shied away from discussing her health concerns publicly, including her 2021 lung cancer diagnosis.
"I'm about to go into surgery to have half of my left lung removed," she wrote on Instagram that August. "I have lung cancer even though I've never smoked! The doctors are very optimistic as it is stage 1 and contained in my left lung. Hopefully, no chemo or radiation after this and I should have normal function with my breathing."
She concluded her post, urging her fans to "stay up to date on your medical checkups" because "it'll save your life."
Although Kathy took the diagnosis in stride, it was still one she struggled to fully accept.
"Whether I like it or not, I think I'm a resilient survivor," she said on ABC News' Nightline at the time, "I was definitely in shock. I'm still a little bit in shock—not denial, but once a day I'll just turn to like, nobody next to me and go, 'Can you believe this s--t? Is this a b--ch or what?'"
But she was also looking at the silver lining, adding, "It's stage 1. It's nowhere else in my body. So I need to focus on that."
Luckily, three months later, Kathy shared a positive update on her journey.
"I'm cancer-free," she announced on Jimmy Kimmel Live!. "I don't know why I had a tumor. I've never smoked, and it was in there for 10 years."

Has she ever had her head severed?
The older we get the fewer the years left in our lives.
My uncle had complications from that procedure and died of sepsis. Horrific way to go.
OK, Kathy. I can sleep again, now that I got the update on your downloads. Thanks! Oh, and did you get that Prune-Pudding flavored Toothpaste I sent you?
I was in a souvenir shop, saw a box of it, thought abt you!
I don’t wish her any suffering. That’s all I’ll say.
Her head got in the way. Probably a concussion. 😛
Colonoscopy is bullshit. DNA testing is more accurate and has no risk of complications. Cologuard is the test. $695 from Exact Sciences.
My medicare advantage provider texted me that colonoscopies were zero copay. I replied they had to do better than that.
Head stuck up her ass?...............
I had one , my first , last November here in Japan , done by a female doctor . . They found several polyps , one pre-cancerous , all removed . Did experience constipation for months after but now OK . Have another scheduled for September . Not looking forward to it , obviously .
I’ve had two over the years both were clear. My wife says it’s because I’m a perfect azzhole. 🙄
The doctor was asked what the problem was and he replied there was difficulty finding an entrance because she was all azz.
that would be Kathy Who Gives A F***K!
“The comedian “. WTF????? Was this before or after the procedure?
My first thought too. 😅
$695 from Exact Sciences.
YUGELY overpriced.
She looks like Carrot Top, or, uh, Carrot Top looks like her. The horror...
That wasn’t a polyp, it was her brain.
